Olympic Shore

Well we've seen the Olympic mountains and it was time to explore the ocean shores of the Olympic National Park. The most amazing feature of the shore for us was the number of very large logs accumulated on the the shore. Apparently they find their way down river during floods and end up in the oceanl. There are warning sighs everywhere cautioning people to use extreme caution when walking the shore, especially during high tide, to watch out for logs thrown ashore by the surf. Killer logs, they are.

Logs & Dead Trees on Beach

The beaches are really rugged and beautiful. A lot of rocks sticking out of the water making for some interesting photographs.

On Thursday we shifted the motorhome south to Kalalach Campground. On our way to Ruby beach we stopped to check out the really, really huge cedar trees. These cedar trees are larger than any I have ever seen.

We continued our tour to Ruby Beach. This beach also has a ton of logs on shore and some beautiful scenes. This shore was rocky like the ones further north in one direction and sandy in the other. Go figure.

We could stick around this area for a couple more weeks, we must begin moving south. Astoria, Oregon is our next destination.
